"away" or "night" mode shows "one sensor open".

I have encountered this twice now. Once I came home and on the app noticed the system was "armed away" with "one sensor open". I ended up having a stressful night w the police searching my house before they cleared it for me.

2nd time, I was home, the system was "armed night" with no issues. I noticed the touchscreen started updating its software while on "night" mode. Once the upgrade was done, the touchscreen went back to "armed night" with "one sensor open".

I'm concluding that when the touchscreen self upgrades its software while on "away" or "night" mode, it goes back to the armed mode, however, it shows the sensor that was last opened and closed as "open".

Has anyone encountered this before? It's frustrating becasue I can't have the police clear my house each time this false alarm happens.

I didn't have your issue but I did have an issue with "smoke sensor is open" even though they were all closed. A tech visit was able to clear it.
